Structure & product fit

Build the packaging around the product

Packaging dimensions should start with the product and how it needs to be packed, protected, displayed, stored or transported. Internal space, board thickness, closures, inserts and assembly method can all affect the finished structural specification.

Measure the maximum product size Record the longest, widest and deepest points, including lids, closures, handles or projecting parts.

Define the required clearance Allow the space needed for packing, movement control, protective material or a fitted insert without unnecessarily increasing the box size.

Match structure to product weight Product weight, fragility and stacking requirements help determine suitable board strength and structural construction.

Consider how the packaging will be used Retail display, gifting, ecommerce, storage, fulfilment and transport can place different demands on the same packaging structure.

MEASUREMENT PRINCIPLE

Unless otherwise agreed, always confirm whether supplied measurements refer to the internal usable space or the external finished dimensions.

Printing & finishing

Develop the print specification around the material

Printing and finishing options should be selected after the material and structure are understood. The suitable production route depends on the substrate, artwork, colour requirements, quantity, surface area and intended appearance.

PRINTING Choose the print process from the job specification

Digital PrintingSuitable for compatible substrates and projects where digital production provides the appropriate quality and production route.

Lithographic / OffsetUsed where detailed graphics, controlled colour and suitable production volumes justify lithographic printing.

Flexographic PrintingCommonly considered for suitable corrugated, kraft and transport-packaging applications.

Spot / Brand ColoursSpecific colours can be considered where brand consistency or restricted-colour artwork requires them.

FINISHING Add surface treatments only where they support the brief

Lamination & CoatingsMatte, gloss or other suitable surface treatments can alter appearance, handling and surface protection.

FoilMetallic, coloured or decorative foil can highlight selected branding or graphic elements.

Embossing / DebossingRaised or recessed areas can introduce tactile depth where the board and structure support the process.

Spot UV & Specialist EffectsSelective gloss, texture or other specialist treatments can be considered where technically suitable.
